Tasting - Ruta 22 Malbec
Name: Ruta 22 Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Patagonia
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $3.95
Winery Review: Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with candied fruit and caramel sweetness.
My Review: Cranberry red in color, exuding an unexpected jammy aroma. The palate consists of fruity, berry components. This wine finishes with a little heat on the back end.
I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
